Fashion trends change very fast these days and in the process of selling something unique, they design bizarre things sometimes. Balenciaga is among popular fashion brands in the world and has been trolled recently for selling a very strange t-shirt that too at £935 (Rs 84,000).

The t-shirt shirt is a part of the Fall 18 collection is exactly like what its name suggests. It is a blue tee with a checked shirt hanging in the front of it. You can see it below:

Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia doesn’t really care about these comments. In 2017, he told Vogue in an interview that he feels good when people get annoyed with his designs.
“I think it’s very interesting, the definition of ugly, I think it’s also very interesting to find this line where ugly becomes beautiful or where beautiful becomes ugly. That’s a challenge I like. I think that’s a part of what fashion stands for and I like that people think my clothes are ugly; I think it’s a compliment.” he said.
What do you think about this Balenciaga ‘T-shirt shirt’? Do let us know in comments.
